Finally got through all 6 ~~~

bunch of ex-wives raving? bad one? agreed.
Meier on the record was OK. But she wasn't there for most of "It" . see Shug909's ~~' No, it shows Jerry choosing opiates over people who loved and cared about him and him treating them badly' . But what can YOU do? nothing.
sad.
Trixie Garcia was his only child on film. She seemed as interested as Jerrys need to pull out the night of her conception. And yet, no Carolyn Adams..

The pix with his child on his lap, and the BLACK fingertips on his left hand around 85? priceless
I hope I'm getting things correct, less a slashing therefore.

Will have to find the original posts and compare/contrast.
And go though it again maybe

It certainly is sad.

But those who've posted here concluding they now have enough evidence (re: the whole Barbara Meier thing) to conclude Jerry was an 'asshole' baffle me.
I'm no apologist for anyone but we've all hurt people who loved us, no? What about feeling bad for a guy whose scene was such that he needed to go down the opiate rabbit hole? Oh and hey, it was Meier -as luminescent then as she is now -who dumped Jerry way back when. (Over that banjo!)

Let he who is without transgression.........
